Aw, Shaw. When you're all done with the nasty scans and you find the little fucker that wrecked your car, I'll come and hold him while you kick him. Be sure to bruise his labia. Or should that be bruce his labia?

Thanks.

Bad luck follows me around.

If I have brain damage, I'll find the little fucker and sue his pants off. ;)

He'll be lookin' like a fool with his pants on the ground.

Bwaaahahaaaa!

And his cell phone stuck up his butt.

I hope the planets align soon all this bad luck is crazy!

Shaw I hope he won't be calling anyone! I hate getting calls from assholes! :eyebrow:

Speaking of assholes anyone else getting those 000 000 0000 calls? They are untraceable and probably from credit scammers? :mad:

lol...calls from assholes! Butt-dialing (have you seen that commercial? "Cracks" me up!)

:)

Never got a 0000 call.

friggin' pollen.

Ditto.

I just got in from outside, and the air was actually a little green when the wind was blowing.

I had to hose off the trampoline before the kids could use it, because it was coated in yellow.

@ Carruthers: It's slightly shocking when you suddenly notice the aging process in your parent. Like they continue looking a particular way and then suddenly you notice, they've changed quite a lot whilst your head was turned. Bizarre really. Slightly unreal seeming. I hope this isn't the beginnng of anything. It may just be one of those things.

@ Sundae: sorry to hear about that m'dear. Hope your Gramps is ok.

Oh, and Fuck diabetes. It's a sucky, nasty condition.

She's eleven. She's a tough kid and I'm proud of how well she's taking this, but I sure wish it had passed her by.

If wishes were fishes we'd all cast nets.

Sorry Pete.

Hugs to all.

I'd like to state for the record that I usually do not visit this thread nowadays, because I've found reading everyone's troubles upsets me too much. I find it ironic to see my name as the OP all the time.

Me too.

Shaw - that's what this thread is for, dear girl!

Well, I don't often post in here, but lately, the fit has been hitting the shan.

My gramma died last Friday and had the funeral the following Monday. It was a beautiful service. I still miss her. She had suffered years of Alzheimer's disease, so she was ready, but I am still sad.

My husband was laid off this previous Friday. He's relieved, but I am terrified.

A close friend of the family is in stage 4 of lung cancer. It looks like he might not make it, but we are all hoping and praying for the best.

So, that is the sum of upsetting news for our family. Please keep us in your thoughts/good vibes/prayers.

Thanks,
Case

Oh Case! I'm thinking of you and your family - good vibes coming your way!

stuff

idiots

and assholes

( I'm over-booked and more than tired )


@ case. Take care and I am sending all my best wishes and empathy.

@ Case: sorry to hear of you troubles. Sending positive vibes and a virtual hug your way *hug*

@ case: awww hon...sending warm thoughts your way.

@ limey: heheheee...just one of my friends with a drinking problem who cut her eye wide open falling down the steps. When I got home I just wanted to tell SOMEONE about my experience with her at the ER, then it just seemed silly. :blush:

So sorry to hear all that case :-(
Thoughts/good vibes/prayers. ... all on their way.

Thanks, you guys.

Hope things start looking up soon, case.

Thanks you, Clod. Actually, things are already looking up. We are building our house cleaning business, and believe it or not, loving it. It is so nice to have someone to help me, now!

You guys should bank mad loot. I knew a couple who did that. They would do their first cleaning on an hourly basis, then offer the homeowner a lower,flat rate for the same service. They figured out a system where they knew if a job took them five hours the first time, they could get the time down to half after a few times. The owners were happy to get a discount, and my friends made more money per hour than their hourly rate and were able to get a few houses done per day.

@case, glad the layoff turned out to be blessing in disguise! I had that happen when I go fired from my last job and ended up with a job paying almost 2xs what I had before.

My sister is still sick. This makes 21 days of solid sickness. A week before she got sick with whatever she has now, she got a stomach thing for 3 days while on her honeymoon. She's a teacher and hasn't been able to teach her students for almost 3 full weeks (she's tried to go in a few days). She is seeing an infectious disease specialist on Friday. My mom wants me to go as well seeing as I haven't been feeling great for some weeks now also.
I really really hate not being able to help those I love.

I hope she gets some answers and some help, that's rough.

Thanks jinx, the new doc she is going to see is recommended by my mom's most-trusted-has-never-failed endocrine specialist. He has recommended great docs and surgeons for my mom is the past, so this recommendation should work out.

Thanks, moar. I hope your sister is able to solve the illness. Sounds awful!

Everything.

The best thing would be an apocolypse. More personally, a truck should just drive over me. It's be a hella lot easier than this shit.

C'mon, have pity on the poor truck driver. He'd probably lose his job and his license, be unable to work, or even drive to unemployment. He couldn't pay the mortgage, and become homeless, and the bank would fail causing the town to collapse. Social services would scatter his children all over the state in mean foster homes, his wife would run off with a social worker, and his puppy and kitten would starve to death. You wouldn't want to be responsible for that would you? :o

Maybe it's time to stop worrying about anyone else but me. Good karma gets you nowhere. Perhaps the cheaters of the earth have a point.

But but but, we love you. :grouphug:

There's no such thing as good karma or bad karma. It's all karma.

I don't know what's upsetting me. or to put it more accurately everything is upsetting me. Y'know when you just find yourself crying for no reason? or for some stupid little thing that would never normally get to you? I'm flying off the handle at nothing. Swinging from elation to just...I dunno...feels like grief but there's nothing to grieve over. I didn't sleep at all last night. Wasn't down. Was too upbeat. Like my mind was going ten to the dozen and wouldn;t slow down. Just racing. Then bam! I'm angry or something. I dunno.

This isn;t like me. I;m sat here with fucking tears streaming down my face and I have no idea why. But I can't stop. I should be feeling happy. Things are going brilliantly. I almost poste din the Happy thread like half an hour ago, only didn;t because ,my AVG scan was running and I didn;t want to lo in.

I hope you feel better soon.

:comfort:

So do i. Thanks.

I think Pil's a bit worried. he keeps coming over to me to see what's up.

Awwww...ya know, I had a crappy day and I couldn't wait to get home, put on pajamas, and hang out with the cats. :)

Who's a good boy? Pilau is! Yes him is!

Did he get a load of Darla yet?

Heh. Darla reminds me of Pilau.

Y'know I am not sure which is worst; the crying, or the flying high.


he is a good boy. He's my little wolf.

I'd say "welcome to my world" but it sounds dismissive. ;)

Well, I guess I already said it. BUT, I was thinking...this isn't normal for you. You're very even keel.

Are there any anniversaries of any milestones or something? You know, something maybe you aren't thinking of outright but it's on your mind?

*shakes head* I don;t think so. That's what's worrying me.

I have been in states like this before, but not for a long time. It's bouncing between euphoria and tears that's getting to me. The 'up' isn' a comfortable up, it's more like a chemical high. Y'know, like when your jaw is clenched and your kind of a bit hyper? Then shoom! down so fast your stomach turns.

K. Talking about it is calming me down. I've stopped crying *smiles* hopefully I'll actually sleep tonight, though for the life of me I cannot currenty imagine feeling tired.

Thanks Shaw.

have you been to a doc and had bloodwork done? B12 deficiency? Bipolar? ALS? Menopause?

This is more of a "what is making you anxious" thing, but I don't feel like starting another of these type threads.

My sis is suppose to get the blood test results back tomorrow from her latest doc, the infectious disease doc. Hopefully they have finally been able to find what is causing her sickness.
One of the parent's of her students emailed her today asking if she could tutor their kid after school. WTF?
1) The kid can go to tutoring in the morning, the parent's just complain its a hassle.
2) She possibly has an contagious disease, and one that is breaking her down, but yet you want to expose your child to that?
3) If she was well enough to work, she would be working!


Also, I'm anxious for myself. I went to a new doc on Friday also cuz I had a fever and some sinus issues. He gave me meds for that, but also found that my thyroid feels enlarged. Might be the cause of my chronic fatigue, which I have been struggling with for....2yrs now, I think. So had blood tests and a sonogram of my thyroid. I hope they DO find something wrong, so that finally there will be something to fix, and I don't have to feel like its all my fault. Results for that "in a few days."

Dana and Shaw: its a hard struggle. I hope y'all both get to the root of your problems soon. :grouphug:

You both just need a man.



Someone to blame, then you wouldn't have to figure out what's up.:lol:

I think I'll just blame the government :P

Am feeling tons better this morning. Getting some sleep helped. A lot. Alot of help that is, not a lot of sleep :P But hey: 5 solid hours isn't half bad for me ;) Hopefully that's it, done and dusted. Usually by the time I start talking about what's up that means I've hit bottom and about to come around.

Awww, dear, I know. I'm still worried about my noggin and still haven't heard from the hospital as to when they're scheduling my scan. I won't even go into what I did yesterday...but it was proof of just how bad my concentration is. I can't seem to focus. I forget what I did 5 minutes ago.

I know what you mean when you say you hope they find something, so at least there is something to fix.

Hang in there, girl.

:lol:

NO comment. ;)


I got a lot of sleep last night, and feel better too.

I'm glad you're feeling better. :)

(heeeheee...that was a joke, you know, can't remember stuff...haahaa. Heeeheee...eh, I got nuttin')

*snort*

Shawnee: You got me scrolling up and down and a tad confused. :p: Glad to see you still got your sense of humour although you're worried about your health. :) I was about to pm you and ask about your doctor's appointment. Don't you just wish they can work faster to figure what's wrong with us? You're still waiting on making an appointment? What is wrong with them? Geez.....

Heeheee...I was thinking, what if I do have a benign tumor or something, and they remove it? What part of my brain will I lose? Will I no longer have a sense of humor? Then I wouldn't be "me." What if I can't remember how to do my job? What if I become, like, a really nice person? :eek:

Arggggggghhhhh!

;) Just things that have been running through my head.

I called my doc on Monday to ask what I should do. She said the nurse would call me soon.

Sigh...it's not like I'm breaking their door down to get the test...of course I don't really WANT to, so I wish they'd get on the ball so I don't have to keep begging for a damn appointment that I don't want to have to do anyway. But, have to I must.

Thanks! :)

We have other people's cows here to feed and synchronize for breeding. One just chased me trying to get me. I had to run about 200 yards to dive head first and roll over the electric fence! I called up the owners and told them to come get their cow otherwise she and McDonald's will be on a first name basis!!!!! :mad2:We don't keep people chasin' cows they are crazy. :mad: :scream:

You have some seriously unique experiences! I giggled, though I know a cow could actually hurt you, at the thought of your narrow escape and the crazy people-chasin' cow. :)

Seriously they better be hooking up their trailer pronto to come and get her because F that shit!:eyebrow:

You can walk thru our herd and pet calves if they come up to you. Some gals are a bit nervous right after they calve but you give them a wide berth for a couple of days and they are fine. This one ran across the pasture just to get me. No insane cows wanted BYE BYE! :)

Sale on Angus burgers at Nirvana's . . . while supplies last ;)

I like my steaks rare. :yum:

Mom just called. Doc had no definitive answers for my sister still. The most recent round of blood tests ruled out all of the "nastier" possibilities (IE lupus). Not all of the tests have come back though, still waiting on the mono test for example, which she has had mono, but it is possible to have it reoccur. He has pretty much concluded its a viral infection, and she's not contagious. She can go to work if she feels up to it...
Doing another round of blood tests and a stomach scan. Another appointment next Wed.

"It's never lupus."

Sorry to hear about the uncertainty, moar.

Hope all works out for your sister.

I didn't know there were blood tests specifically for lupus. That took me by surprise.

I'm sorry to disagree with whomever you are quoting, but sometimes it is lupus. Mrs. Z lost a very dear high-school friend to lupus.
